| - I just wrote a long review and apparently lost it, so here's my repost:
Treno: looks pretty, friendly staff. Linguine con Vongole: Pasta should be married to its sauce and warmed before serving, not preset in a bowl to congeal and have its sauce and clams dumped on top. The strips of roasted red peppers (aka canned pimiento) are too large and contribute nothing to the flavor while the parsley is too sparse. The crusty bread was too cold and stale to sop up the lukewarm sauce left in the bowl. The sorbet was too sweet. The soup is too hearty to be a starter.
My vegetarian friend's beet salad did not come with the dressing on the side as requested, and no, when she asks if it is truly vegetarian she does not want to add chicken or salmon to it.
My first posting, which I lost, was kinder and gentler, but this is a true, albeit curt, review.
I would try Treno again, with some caution.
